Fernanda Feher

Fernanda Feher (Brazil, 1988) Is a multimedia artist who works mostly with collages and figurative painting (water-based oil paint and watercolours) but has also been experimenting with ceramic sculptures and installations. Feher subverts traditional portraiture by placing subjects in fantastic, sometimes impossible landscapes heavy with symbolism.

​

The main subject of Feher work is women and nature, often in a surreal way. Fernanda has a taste for motifs, patterns, tiny details, stickers, colourful palettes. In spite of the work appearing to be innocent and humorous, it is dealing with the more conflicting aspects of being a woman (and mother) in a world structured on patriarcal foundations. Relationships between human and non-human, matter and spirit are also part of the atmosphere presented by the artist. 

​

Lately Feher has participated in a series of exhibitions with Gisela Projects including the art fair SP Arte and a group show at Galeria Lume. She has also been part of a group show at Trotter & Sholler, in New York City, called “A Suitable Accomplishment”. In 2021 a solo show, The Conflict Between the Eagle and the Serpent, at Galeria Millan. Fernanda has been in Pivô Arte e Pesquisa residency in 2019 in São Paulo. In 2018 was part of the 3331 arts residence Chiyoda, in Tokyo and also presented the exhibition Quimera, at Gallery Arte 57, São Paulo, curated by Fernando Ticoulat.
